Omtale fra Den Norske Bokdatabasen
It is 1946, and a stunned Europe is beginning its slow recovery from the ravages of World War II. Adam Miller has come to Venice to visit his widowed mother and try to forget the horrors he has witnessed in Germany. Nothing has changed in Venice, note the beautiful palazzos, not the violins at Florian's not the shifting water that makes the city, untouched by bombs, still seem a dream. But when Adam falls in love with Claudia, a Jewish girl scarred by her devastating experiences during the war, he is forced to confront another Venice, a city still at war with itself, haunted by atrocities it would rather forget. And when, finally the troubled past erupts in violent murder Adam finds himself at the centre of a web of deception, intrigue and unexpected moral dilemmas.
